Thought this was going to be either "She said "yes"" or "It's a baby"! .... even better, it's approval from SWMBO to get a Lotus! Result :thumbsup :lol:

Used to frequent the forum when younger, I had CO na exige around 6 years ago. Upset a few on here when young and daft :p sorry bout that! Sold it as buying first house etc etc, had some real nice cars since then but always craved an s2 again. Now in position to buy a "toy". Mrs was never keen on me getting back in a lotus but tonight just changed her mind for some reason :)

S2 all the way , original spoiler too .. Just have a thing for them. Hardly any for sale ! Future classic?

I remember you Jamie... you did the wiring in my kitchen if I remember correctly.
Great news that you're getting another. Can you tell me how you managed to persuade SWMBO so I can try the same trick :)
I have no signature.

Your car is very nice and exactly what I would buy if not having purchased new from Murrys. :thumbsup

Ps I parked up 2 days side by side with your Exige at Aberdeen airport the other week, but you must have been away a wee bit longer than me as you were still there upon my return.

Give Craig and Brandon a call at MMC and they might be able to help source a car for you.

It just seems right, Its my 30th in august, we have a baby due, business is good and wife just says I deserve to treat myself for working non stop. The fact Ive gave up gambling too also gave me brownie points. I go for a short break to cyprus in august, flight already booked..today I suggested driving there if we get the car in time but apparently driving to cyprus in a lotus whilst 6 months pregnant is not practical ? :scratch

eying this http://www.pistonheads.com/classifieds/ ... 40/2402472 but maybe just too soon and just a little more than I wanted to spend. Made enquiry anyway :)
